Hey 3dprinting! I want to buy a 3d printer for my little sister for Christmas. She’s big into cosplay and engineering. I expect her to make props/and little container for things. Nothing crazy. I was looking at the ender 3 models but was unsure if that was the right pick. Just wanted to know if you had any advice. Budget is 2-300.

    Make sure nothing is bent, cracked or otherwise broken. When assembling, make sure the z gantry is square - put the screws in loosely and slowly tighten them evenly, then before making them tight, make sure it’s square. Best bet for a beginner FDM machine is going to be a basic PLA.
